#truthbrokeout #NaPoWriMo2021 #Day13



Unexpected news…truth broke out.


Every day I read

bad news, my heart it

broke, so I choose to

stop reading print, no red top

rags or broadsheet columns scanned.

 

Every day I read

 fake news, my heart it

broke, so I choose to

stop mindless scrolling, on

social media, ignoring trolls.

 

Unexpectedly truth

broke out, usually

lies have run halfway.

around the globe before the

truth has got her pants on. 

 

Today’s prompt comes from the Instagram account of Sundress Publications, which posts a writing prompt every day, all year long. This one is short and sweet: write a poem in the form of a news article you wish would come out tomorrow.

Added a little nod to Terry Pratchett
